What to know about retractable security grilles in Harpenden

Grilles can be fitted to rear doors, stock rooms and vulnerable ground-floor windows as well as shopfronts. Some grilles are tested to security standards such as LPS 1175 or STS 202 if a rated product is needed.

Locks are built into the grille, often with a key on one side and a thumb turn on the other where escape matters. Retractable grilles fold to the side of the opening, so there is no box above the window or door.

What's included

  • Folding lattice that stacks to the side
  • Removable bar grilles for windows
  • Powder coated in black, white or RAL
  • Integral locks, keyed or thumb turn
  • Rated products available on request
  • No shutter box needed

Rules in England

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Before you book in Harpenden

Do you cover Harpenden?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair retractable security grilles in Harpenden and the AL5 district, as part of our coverage across Hertfordshire.

Are grilles as secure as shutters?

A good grille with top and bottom tracks is a strong deterrent and hard to defeat quickly. For tested security, rated grilles are available.

Can a grille be fitted on a fire exit?

Only if it can be opened quickly from the inside without a key, and the fire risk assessment allows it. We check this before fitting.

Do grilles get in the way during the day?

Retractable grilles fold neatly to the side of the opening. Removable grilles can be lifted out and stored.

Do your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
